The City has essentially used Grass Lake's Management Plan as a model, and Shoreview's Local Plan (as updated) incorporates goals, objectives, methodologies, etc. consistent with GLWMO in most areas. The City's consultant for the update is currently processing previously requested revisions/additions concerning one and ten-year events and sub- basin susceptibility to impacts from inflow bounce. One notable area where Shoreview's local plan does not fully address GLWMO Plan requirements has to do with what the City intends to do with water quality monitoring, trend analysis and setting action levels for City-managed water bodies. GLWMO Plan Section 5.2, policy 4(c) speaks to this area. In addition, the Shoreview Plan doesn't fully address GLWMO Plan Section 5.2, policy 4(f) as far as setting goals, but it does adopt and use the GLWMO classification system as indicated. These remain areas that Shoreview will need to budget for and incorporate into future Public Works Department work programs. At this time, Shoreview staff would likely pursue some form of contractual relationship with Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District for technical services similar to those arranged for by GLWMO. I would assume that the City's progress in this area would be reevaluated by GLWMO as part of its annual Report Card process in the future. The City of Shoreview is finalizing its local water management plan update, and with the exception noted above, believes it to be consistent with the goals and objectives of the GLWMO Plan and concerns/comments raised by Board Members. Shoreview will continue to develop a plan for monitoring and interpreting water quality trends in City-managed water bodies.
